Non blocking #1

Open nanthony21 opened 9 years ago

nanthony21 commented 9 years ago

Is there a way to use this library in a non blocking way? The fact the the sensor takes about 0.1 seconds to do a measurement causes problems if the processor has multiple tasks to perform. This library (http://playground.arduino.cc/Code/Sensirion#Example) has a non blocking method but it is very bulky and doesn't use proper I2C.

anthony,

There may be but I don't have time for a code effort just now - it will be about two weeks.

Part of the problem is that I2C can by timing sensitive with it's writes.

Maybe try an interrupt to service your other issues?
